I am a California licensed psychologist with over four decades of experience. I specialize in anxiety disorders, eating disorders, and relationship issues. Most of my work is with couples and I have had extensive education, training and experience. To date I have worked with over a thousand couples. My work is with relationships that I work with couples, individuals, all ethnicities and cultures, and couples gay and straight. I work with premarital counseling, infidelity, divorce prevention, and couples who simply want more satisfaction in their relationship.
My work with couples has been informed by extensive training in the Gottman method, Sue Johnson's Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Developmental Model of Ellyn Bader, and Terry Real's Relational Life Therapy.
Additionally, I have developed my own model which I call Mindful Choices Therapy. I have taught marital therapy in couples therapy in a major university for many years and I have written two books on couples.
